INDIVIDUAL TRAINING & BEHAVIOUR SUPPORT

Every dog is different — and group classes aren’t right for every situation.
Individual sessions allow me to focus entirely on you, your dog, and what’s actually happening in your real life.

One-to-one training and behaviour support takes place in your home or usual environment, where challenges naturally occur. This allows us to create practical, realistic solutions that support long-term change

Based in Stoke-on-Trent, I support dogs and families across Staffordshire and beyond.

​

​

WHY CHOOSE INDIVIDUAL SESSIONS?

In group classes, attention is shared. In individual sessions, every minute is focused on your dog alone.

Benefits of 1-to-1 support include:

  • Training tailored to your dog’s temperament and needs

  • Faster progress without distractions

  • Support in your home, where behaviour really happens

  • Clear, personalised guidance

  • Ethical, reward-based methods

  • Practical solutions that fit your lifestyle

​​

WHO IS INDIVIDUAL SUPPORT FOR?

​​

Puppies

The first months of a puppy’s life shape their future behaviour. Individual training helps build strong foundations from the start.

Support includes:

  • Early socialisation done correctly

  • Bite inhibition and calm behaviour

  • Toilet training and routines

  • Preventing future behaviour problems

Getting it right early is far easier than fixing issues later.

​

Reactive Dogs​

Does your dog bark, lunge or struggle around other dogs, people or triggers on walks? Reactivity can feel exhausting and isolating.

As a Canine Behaviour Consultant, I help you:

  • Understand why your dog reacts

  • Reduce stress and over-arousal

  • Teach calmer, alternative responses

  • Build confidence for both dog and owner

​

​Aggression-Related Behaviour

Growling, snapping or biting should never be ignored. These behaviours often come from fear, stress or discomfort.

I work carefully and professionally to:

  • Identify underlying causes

  • Put safety first

  • Create a clear, structured behaviour support plan

  • Help your dog regain emotional balance

​

Anxiety & Fear

  • Fearful or anxious dogs need patience, understanding and the right approach.

  • This may include:

  • Separation-related behaviours

  • Noise sensitivities

  • Fear of people, environments or handling

  • We work step by step, always at your dog’s pace.

​

How does it work?
 
1. Free Phone Consultation

A no-obligation call to talk through your concerns, ask questions, and decide the best next step.
This ensures you receive the right support from the start.

​

2. Home Diagnosis (Choose One)

Following the phone consultation, the next step is an in-home assessment.
The type of diagnosis depends on whether your dog needs training support or behaviour support.

🐕 Dog Training Home Diagnosis – £150

Suitable for dogs who need skills and guidance rather than behaviour modification.

Includes:

  • Assessment of training challenges

  • Observation of your dog at home

  • Clear explanation of what’s missing or unclear

  • Recommendations for training focus

Examples include walking with a loose lead, recall, puppy training and general manners.

🧠 Behaviour Consultation (Home Diagnosis) – £225

Required for dogs showing emotional or behavioural challenges.

Includes:

  • Detailed behaviour assessment

  • Observation of triggers and environment

  • Understanding emotional drivers behind behaviour

  • Clear explanation of what is really happening

  • Guidance on management and next steps

This option is essential for reactivity, fear, aggression-related behaviours or anxiety.

​

Behaviour change is not a one-session fix. After the initial assessment, I will recommend a structured support package tailored to your dog’s needs. This ensures clarity, consistency and the best possible outcome for both dog and owner.

​

3. Personalised Support Plan

After the assessment, I will create a clear, personalised training or behaviour support plan tailored to your dog’s needs.

You will:

  • Understand what is causing the behaviour

  • Know exactly what to work on and how

  • Have realistic expectations and next steps

Based on your dog, I will recommend a structured support package designed to achieve long-term results.

​

4. Ongoing Support & Progress

Training and behaviour change are processes. I support you throughout the journey with:

  • Structured sessions

  • Practical exercises

  • Ongoing guidance

  • Adjustments as your dog progresses

This ensures consistent, ethical and effective support for both you and your dog.

​

Ready for a change?

If you’re ready to take the next step, book a free phone consultation and we’ll go from there — calmly, clearly and at a pace that works for you and your dog.
